Cat is getting neutered.

That’s being responsible!!

If he is an outside cat he will hate your guts when you bring him home. By dinner time he'll be back. Neutering and spaying are the responsible things to do.

Ah man mine was fine but he’s a cool guy. Didn’t even lick it much. Keeping him in was the worst part because he loves to be out and about.

Does he have a name?
I suggest calling him Knute after he's fixed.

yes i do. i belong to a TNR (trap neuter release) group in my neighborhood. i would tell you to keep him quiet but he will be pretty spooked. some come home and some don't. are you keeping him inside? smart thing to do. I live in florida and there is a real problem down here. we have it under control in my neighborhood

I agree that having him neutered is best in many and ALL ways, for sure. Bless you for caring for him, instead of taking him to a "pound"/shelter.

As I recall, I was supposed to keep my male cat as calm as possible for awhile, as in not jumping around and stuff. That was about impossible, since he didn't seem at all phased by the procedure.

I wonder what the animal hospital does with em? 🚮

Good on your and your family and best of luck. Cats are the best.
